Hi Robert,
I use PowerPoint 2000 with JAWS7 on a Dell laptop on a daily basis, and I dont
recognize your problems. But I dont understand what up and down arrow have to
do with next and previous slied.
I use spacebar and backspace to move around during a slide show and that works
just fine.
I dont have PowerPoint 2003, so I cant verify that PowerPoint causes the
trouble.
I would suggest you try PPT2000 your self and see if it fixes your problem.
Hope this helpts.
-Harald

Subject: PowerPoint 2003, Jaws 7, focus problems in presentation mode
Thanks in advance.
I am using PowerPoint 2003, Jaws 7
When in presentation mode I experience a loss of focus which is frustrating
at any time, but for me, especially when teaching a class of university
students.
Sometimes jaws works well, others I have to alt tab away from the
presentation and then back to it. Sometimes this doesn't help either.
Symptoms: If up-arrowing jaws will read previous slide. If down-arrowing
jaws only reads a line or two then makes the sound that indicates the bottom
of a page, this in spite of the fact that it has not yet reached the bottom
of the slide.
I tried various monitor settings.
I have done all the XP and Office updates.
My computer is a Dell inspiron 9200 laptop using the ATI Radeon mobility vid
card, XP home, AVG anti-virus program.
If PowerPoint 2003 is problematic with jaws, I do have 2000 that I can try
going back to.
Again, thanks
Robert McCoy
